KWV Shiraz 2003

This full red wineâ€™s bouquet suggests ripe berries overlaid with green pepper and spicy flavours. There is excellent follow through onto the palate where the peppery flavours dominate. The well-integrated ripe tannins make for easy accessibility.

Goulash, kassler rib, roast venison and meatballs.
